The 8-point lift Non-Surgical Facelift with Dermal Fillers

By Volbella Volift Voluma

Facial enhancement and rejuvenation have moved beyond wrinkle effacement and surgical facelifts – to an approach that subtly reshapes and redefines.

This comprehensive, multimodal approach permits clinicians to develop aesthetic treatment plans tailored to individual patient needs and designed to produce a natural look.

The 8-point lift is a new approach, utilizing the new VYCROSS collection of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers for facial rejuvenation and shaping. The procedure, developed by Dr Mauricio de Maio, is delivered in 8 distinct treatment areas to achieve the most natural result and maintain each patient’s unique facial expressions.

Treatment is individualised to each patient using the Juvéderm® family of HA fillers – including Juvéderm® VOLBELLA® with Lidocaine, Juvéderm® VOLIFT® with Lidocaine and Juvéderm® VOLUMA® with Lidocaine.

The procedure recommends a sequence of injection and specific sites that should be adapted based on each patient’s profile to achieve the optimal outcome. This booklet aims to provide clinicians with the information needed to carry out the 8-point lift with confidence.

With ageing, this youthful definition is gradually lost as volume levels are depleted.

The pre-jowl depression is the result of sagginess (skin laxity and subcutaneous fat loss and redistribution) that gradually appear with ageing and create a heavy appearance to the lower face.
